Poly X50 & X30 v3.3.2 video feeds not working

I finally got a decent answer from a support person at Poly. These fraudsters are just recommending waiting for the next version of the Teams app. This is rolling out in the Teams Admin Center and should be fully deployed by the end of the Month. I am not holding my breath that either Microsoft or Poly will fix this issue. Below is the email form Poly "support"

As for the long standing difficulty with these devices, the intermittent failure to transmit video has been an acknowledged Microsoft issue. The options to mitigate or avoid this issue are not great until we get a working fix from them.

Ideally this new Teams app version is delivered this week and fixes the issue.

However, there are other workarounds that customers have implemented:

• Stop using the TC8 for now. This requires a touchscreen or USB mouse connected to the X30 ( usb keyboard helps too but you can use the onscreen keyboard with mouse)
• Use the device in Poly mode with Poly RealConnect for Teams. In this mode you’re running only Poly software but since it’s using standard SIP or H323 protocols it requires a gateway into Teams which is provided by the RealConnect service.

Again neither workaround is great, using without TC8 is clunky and RC Teams is additional expense/setup.

I certainly understand your frustration but these are the only 3 options at this point.

Basically they know it is broken and apparently can't do anything to fix it. Last Time I will ever purchae Poly equitment. Our business has purchased VVX phones and x30's to work with Teams this year. So far both products have been plagued with issues to the point that they are unusable. We finally had to get beta frimware on our vvx phones just to use them for calling. Microsoft needs to do something aout the quality of these updates. Or they need to remove Poly from the list of Teams supported vendors if they are going to have major technical issues that go unresolved for months. I personally feel misled by both Microsoft and Poly. If it were my business, I would be lawyering up to recoup the wasted productivity time of my employees, and potential loss of business due to our inability to communicate with customers. What Poly and Microsoft are doing is theft or fraud. It effects my reputation as a technical administrator in our company when I am not able to fix a business critical system.
